It took a couple of months but this site is finally back online. I was certain that a decommission permit would come through one day since it was offline for over 3 months but I passed by it today and it was working again. — — — — — This site is also finally live. This was probably the longest I had ever seen a site take to go live once all hardware was installed, about 3 months. Hopefully the site in Long Island City doesn't take as long. -
So while we wait for @RAvirani to fix the website, I was able to connect one of my phones to Verizon n77 on a site with an NCI that appears to be adjacent to an NCI that was already in my database. Specifically, the site I call Taylor Run has been observed with these NCIs on n77: 44EEE469A 44EEE46AA 44EEE46AB 44EEE46BA 44EEE46BB I separately connected to the site I call Fairlington on its beta sector on n77: 44EEE46DA 44EEE46DB I'm assuming alpha sector is 44EE46CA/B. With this data, I learned two things: 1) They're clearly not tracking the LTE GCIs with the NR NCIs. Taylor Run is 1B61Fxx, while Fairlington is 1B680xx, not sequential. 2) It's clear that they're not using three byte sectors. They're not even using two byte sectors like LTE does. It looks to be done in an oddball fashion like how Dish is doing things. Best I can come up with is a site ID that's something like: (NCI-0x20)/(0x30) It's possible it's actually (NCI+0x10)/(0x30) but I'm not really sure. I also haven't connected to anything outside my immediate area here to know if this is consistent with other regions. Not entirely sure how to persuade a device to do so, my Dish phone just connects to n77 at random in lieu of going to no signal. (No data passes.) My take is to "break" the site notes for Verizon NR the way it was done with Dish NR, so at least the notes don't get copied to inconsistent sites, as has happened when I connected to Fairlington (came up as "Taylor Run"). It seems that Verizon, AT&T, and Dish all need work on the NR side to make sure site notes work properly. Frustrating that they didn't standardize that for NR the way they did for LTE. T-Mobile and US Cellular (while it lasts) seem to have done it the way I would have done it. The others, not so much. - Trip -

I tried to access that forum but it says I need a password. Is it limit to certain contributors? I was going to report that the website is broken. For days it's been saying unable to retrieve signal data then going to a 404 error. -
Sorry, I forgot about it when I posted previously. And then I was talking to chamb by e-mail and away from my computer and suggested posting here. Moved the posts to the proper spot. - Trip

It is probably better to post topics related to the map in the dedicated thread to help keep things organized and secure. This thread is big enough as it is, just want to try help keep things on track!
